So I went a little overboard on making stuff for the new baby. I originally intended to make one or two onesies/burp cloth sets but once I got started, I guess I could not stop. Part of the problem is that I won a set of fat quarters over the holidays from one of my favorite blog's giveaways and since it was mainly blue fabric, I just had to use it for my own son. And I couldn't just pick one!

I ended up making 6 sets (onesie, burp cloth & pee pee teepee) and 2 other onesies. Hard to tell from the photo but I made 2 whale onesies, a "r' one, a robot one, a small fry on, a zebra one, an elephant one and a bulldog onesie.

Close up shot of the pee pee teepees...Ava always thinks these are party hats for dolls. They do look like it! Think she will be surprised to see how these are actually used.

And a shot of my nice burp cloths...I used leftover chenille and minky dot for the back and they are random sizes as a result. I love the way these look -- it will be a shame when they get all dirty. :)

I am really slow at posting my projects these days...I made these about 2 weeks ago. I have a list of things to make before I have this baby in 4 weeks and for some reason I keep adding in random projects before finishing my list. For instance, I just painted a Hello Kitty picture for Ava's room this weekend (photo to come) as well as made another tank dress for her. And the other week I made a tank dress for myself that can be worn now and should work post-pregnancy due to the empire elastic waistband. We'll see if I get around to posting all these photos...so little time and so much to do!!

About me...

Hi! I'm Megan. Welcome to my project blog where I share all the recent crafty & artistic things I have been up to.

I'm a stay at home mom and aunt to 4 nieces and 2 nephews so a lot of my projects center around the kids! However from time to time, I do stuff for the home or work on gifts for friends and family (whatever they may be). Sewing is my current passion so most projects are along those lines but I do still go back to my roots of drawing, painting, etc. when the mood strikes. Thanks for visiting mōkrü!
